Expo Colorful Dreams | d.&a Studio

Somewhere between sleeping and waking, between reality and imagination, images and stories arise that can surprise us. There we live our dreams and we can be taken to another world.

Dream State is a group exhibition of artists exploring the realm of their imagination and dreams. This diverse art show blurs the lines between reality and fantasy, open to questions and curiosity.

Artists have long used dreams as a source of inspiration, a haven for reason, and a space for the exploration of imagination, curiosity, and desire. A "dream state" is defined as: "the state of impaired consciousness in which the environment is perceived as in a dream." Our artists explore the realm of their dreams through different mediums and meanings, encouraging the viewer to question what they see as reality or fantasy.

This Expo succeeds in translating a 'dream state' through stimulation, whether literal or abstract, for each individual artist's interpretation and their own perception of a dream. Dreams of the future, fantasy scenes, surreal creatures, color and textures all have their place in the "dream state", this exhibition attempts to lift the veil and invite you into this realm.

The idea of the "Colorful Dreams" is an infinite source of inspiration and can be both the object and subject of a work of art. We rarely give ourselves the chance to let our dreams dictate our waking lives, but much can be gained by doing so.

Our subconscious often holds the answers to questions we have asked ourselves. It may be a glimpse of a personal truth or a hint to a better understanding.

A "dream state" is defined as: "the state of reduced awareness in which the environment is perceived as in a dream."

The artists and designer explore the realm of their dreams through different mediums and meanings, encouraging the viewer to question what they see as reality or fantasy.

Somewhere between sleep and wakefulness, between reality and imagination, images and stories arise that can surprise us. There we live our dreams and we can take to another world.
